Рет қаралды 7,286
2 жыл бұрынWhat's good everybody!! After a brief trip to the middle east, I am back and slowly getting back into the swing of things!! First addition coming back is this sweet set of DRLs from www.doctorQ50.com. The install went smooth and as you will see in the video is a very easy to accomplish mod that I highly recommend!!

With me having a 2018 with LED lights all around from Factory would I still need to get a set of resistors?
@Foxcraze Жыл бұрын
The lights should have came with the needed resistors when you bought them. All LED's run higher than their operating voltage which makes the resistor needed. I would say to just plug them in and see what happens. You will know immediately if the resistors are still needed. I can’t give you a definitive answer unfortunately sorry.

What wire would I need to tap into if I have the diode dynamic always on module for the fog lights and I want the drl to always stay on aswell
@Foxcraze 2 жыл бұрын
I can honestly say I’m not sure since I don’t personally have the module installed however I got the knowledge on what I did discuss from Speedculturestudios install video where he used the module harness as the power source. Maybe check out video, he might have discussed it!

Hi guys! I recently got as a gift sequential front bumper turn signals for infiniti Q50. After connecting them to the original plug, it turned out that only the first two LEDs are activated and the rest of the turn signals blink rapidly as if one of the turn signals is faulty. The electrician at the Infiniti dealership who installed it tried to add a resistor, however, this did not help. The car has been produced in 2018- My question is, did you have such a case? Can you maybe advise something on how to deal with this problem? I would really appreciate some advice 🙏

I am having an issue with my DRLS. When they are white (2 or 3 of the dots) start flashing! I got new ones they worked fine for a few weeks then it started doing it again - is that to a faulty Load resistor???
@Foxcraze Жыл бұрын
It’s unlikely both sets were faulty. Did the second set come with a resistor as well? If you order a third set I would def replace the resistor as well and hopefully that fixes the problem.
@MadeBy_Juice Жыл бұрын
@Foxcraze I reused the same resistors for the second set unfortunately and now only the pas side is blinking I am going to swap them out this week and see what happens. Appreciate you commenting back bro. 🫡

Hey I installed mines but for some reason the driver side sequential takes a split second to switch to the white drl before going to the sequential sequence. Might be the wiring?
@Foxcraze Жыл бұрын
Possible or the light has an internal issue which I have seen common in the comments. Make sure none of the wires are touching each other or any external metallic surface. If thats not the case make sure you have a solid connection to the resistor on both ends . If none of that is the issue then it might be a defective light.

I have a 2014 premium and my pin 1 wire is def green but if you have a more upgraded model than me it’s possible yours is a different color. Turn the headlights off so only the DRL is active and hit each pin with a multimeter to find the hot one.

Does the drl function by connecting to a direct power source? On my plug the pinkish wire gave me power on the passenger side. It’s possible I could have misspoke but I’m fairly certain I didn’t. Do you have a tester to check the wires for power?

@Foxcraze 2 жыл бұрын
You will have to use an extra piece long enough to reach and just twist them together to test it out. I would say just buy a cheaper tester from Walmart or turn the drl setting on with the high low lights themselves off and then unplug the headlight and touch the inside of each wire till you find the correct one.

When you say took them apart, do you mean just uninstalled them or opened them up? The DRL wire could be grounding out from an exposed section of wire, have a short from a broken solder point in the housing or the resistor could have went out.

@zemps6542 short of rechecking the wiring and putting the resistor on a tester to see if it’s getting voltage I’m not sure what else to recommend man. You can make a jumper cable to hook to the drl wiring and tap it on the + battery lead and see if they function, that will eliminate any internal housing issues.
